Hes probably still 'pooping his pants' for lack of a better expression. I hope he'll be ok!

Thanks,

He is still quite skittish, so I'm attempting to stay clear of the tank tonight. Try and watch from a distance.

Now I make sure I scare anyone out with a kabob skewer.

Hmm, I would have thought that the new Tunzes would have the same "safe fish" function (a single crank every 15 secs or so to scare off nosey fish) as the old ones and the nanos while on feeding mode.

Hmm.. that's something I never thought to look into. The feed mode is switched from my Profilux controller as that's what they are both plugged into. So as far as they are concerned, they just turn on and off as the profilux commands. I wonder if there is such a feature in the profilux though! I will have to check, thanks for the tip!

If my koralia's are turned off I find my wrasse's like to curl up inside of them. I put masking tape on the plug as a reminder to check it first before I plugged it back in.

I hope your fish will be ok.

Hey any updates? How's the little fella doing?

Yea, he is still kickin! His right gill has healed from what I can see, nothing hanging from it anymore, so that's a relief.

Good to hear!
